At 7.18am on Saturday, April 22nd, crews from Haverfordwest, Milford Haven, Narberth, Fishguard, Tenby, Carmarthen and Ammanford were called to an incident on Dew Street, Haverfordwest, following reports of a large explosion heard.
Crews responded to a fire involving an entire single-storey commercial car engineering garage measuring approximately 40mx30m. Crews utilised three ground monitors, two main jets, a turntable ladder for a water tower, RTC equipment and small gear to cut into a roller shuttered door for access and a drone for aerial thermal imaging. A mixture of gas cylinders inside the garage were cooled and thermal scanned.
A total of 24 residents were evacuated for a short time before being advised to return to their properties. Dyfed-Powys Police were also in attendance.
